Okay, Border List members, here it all is in one easy to bookmark thread.

The Minutemen are showing us not only how to seal our borders and protect our national security, they are demonstrating how we, the people, can take back our country from the political establishment.

Some questions and ideas for you to think about.

What do you think would happen if a popular football or other sports star was to start off the project by donating 5 or 25 million dollars to build fences on private property that adjoins the border?

Then a few more sport stars each throw in a couple of million of their own money while asking all "True Americans" to send just one hours wages to the FENCE FUND?

Do you think that the politicians would be able to stop this from growing out of control and the voters demanding that the Feds "fence our land"?

Do you think the politicians would listen or ignore a million calls a day to their offices?

Never underestimate what the American people can do when they decide they want to do it.

While I'm at it, we could start a "Name and Shame List" of companies that hire illegals. Name the banks that loan money to a tax number when the illegal doesn't have a phony Social Security number. Name the mortgage companies that favor home loans to illegals, using our money for their downpayment.

B4, those are good ideas- this situation has gotten so bad in part because nobody was willing to shine a light on it.

We're not weeding out the people that want to come here and genuinely improve their lives. What's happening is that way too many are coming here because they're being drawn by the magnet of our social welfare safety net or for whatever other reasons and they're not acculturating and they're not learning the language and they're not following the American path to success.
